Yes, and as you can see sbbs is tryint to execute the command-line you specified, which as I recall, is executing a batch file. This is likely failing because you have "Native Executable/Script" set to "No" (as I previously stated and you quoted). Try changing that setting to "Yes".

Probably not, but if you determine the *context* of those errors (e.g. by looking at the terminal server log output or the event thread log output), you could determine more about *why* those errors might've occurred. The error.log file alone is often not enough to root-cause an issue, it's just an indication that there is a problem and that you may have more research to perform to find and fix.
